Sex quantification through mobile apps
QUANTIFICATION (English quantification) - the reduction of qualitative characteristics to quantitative for the next stage of measurement, that is, giving the result of a numerical value.
Recently wearable gadgets that track a person’s activity are gaining in popularity: distance traveled, sleep quality, and so on. Detailed recording of numerical indicators over time allows you to track progress and improve performance. Health, fitness, nutrition, sleep. Everything is monitored and analyzed. Now quantification has finally affected the most important thing - sex.
With such a boom of ubiquitous quantification, it was only a matter of time when mobile applications would appear to track and analyze sexual activity. And yes, such applications have appeared. A number of specialized programs have been released (and at least one gadget!) To analyze a person’s intimate life, writes The Verge.
Applications differ in the way they work. For example, Nipple relies on information entered by the user, and Spreadsheets collects data from motion sensors. Lovely is the most accurate program, because it collects information from the ring, which is put on ... how to say, the subject of measurement.

All programs rely on a basic axiom: the more information you have collected about past activity, the higher the chance of improving performance in the future.
Statistics is conducted on a variety of parameters: the frequency of contacts, the duration of each of them, the speed and frequency of movements.
True, the work of the programs is somewhat complicated. The problem is that science still does not know the ideal indicators for which a person gets the maximum pleasure. In fitness and nutrition, everything is quite clear, but here - to what extent increase the duration? What is the ideal frequency and intensity?
In general, the programs still work poorly. Collected statistics make little sense if you do not know how to use it. What to do if even absolute records give no pleasure, except pride?
Moreover, some people express a seditious idea that the use of such applications and gadgets reduces pleasure from sex, but does not increase it. However, this is a clear Luddism.
